I have suffered from chronic UTIs for about 18 years...getting them as often as 6 times each year. I have seen a specialist(s) and it seems as I am just one of those lucky women that follow all the rules and still get them. So rather than opting for the open prescription of macrobid that my doctor has offered...I am hoping to prevent these via topically applying CS. FYI...lethal doses of pure cranberry don't do a thing for me anymore. My urologist said that he hasn't done any research on CS personally (surprise) but that he thought that it couldn't hurt.

So, my question is exactly how/when should I use this. I bought CS Hydrosol by Sovereign Silver at the local co-op. It has a spray and the directions say to use it for immune support--30 sprays under the tongue daily. At the co-op they said (without being too specific) that it could be used topically. So, to be direct...do I just spray this directly to the entrance of my urinary tract (and the generaly area)?? Or how would anybody recommend I use this?

Please answer soon as I am three days into yet another cycle of antibiotics and really don't want to continue. Thanks in advance! If anybody comes up with a successful means of using this to cure/lessen my condition...I will spread the word like wildfire and send all the good energy that I usually use fighting off these things straight your way!

You should get your own silver producing machine then you can drink as much as you want. Also take rerigerated probiotics to replace those killed off from anti biotics. This ionic silver will end up going out the bladder or in the feces.

You might want to look into the Beck Protocol, Hulda Clark . Or Rife therapy also. You now have everything you need to know for a 100% cure.

topical application of ionic silver is applicable only to diseases on the skin caused by bacteria, viruses, fungus and insects. in your case, you might as well take it orally so that your intestines and other internal organs where the ionic silver passes will be cleansed. killing the bacteria and parasites as it moves out of the body. UTI is an infection inside your urinary tract so have to cure it internally also. it's better also if you can make your own ionic silver at home so that you can take it every minute as you wish and you can save more of your money. i bought my own generator at health2us.com last year. it helped me a lot and my neighbors too.hope you can get one and be UTI free.

I'll look into the silver puppy thing and try to make my own. I'm a little nervous as I can barely boil water!! But there is are many posts with instrucions. I'm sure you'll be seeing my name with many questions when I try it for the first time. I'm starting a Master Cleanse tomorrow...about three weeks. Afer that I'll do some probiotics, then start with the silver drinking! Thanks again.

In addition to the remedial therapies to combat the infections (CS is great BTW, and also ozone - esp. via vaginal insufflation), you must try to make your body as alkaline as possible to prevent the UTIs in the first place.

There are many places on the web to learn about alkalizing, but be as green as possible, very low fruit sugar, low carbs, no processed sugars, no white or processed flour, etc....

Thanks for the reply. Low fruit sugar? I try to eat at the very least 3 servings of fresh fruit...watermelon, pineapple, apples, oranges, strawberries, cantalope, bananas, grapefruit, blueberrie, etc. Are you saying to limit my fruit intake? I understand the alkalizing concept, but I would really try to eat a healthy diet and fruit is a big part of that for me.

I am sorry you are in this bad place. I can relate to the overwhelmed feelings and the anxiety.

Recuring bladder infections involve both systemic yeast and bacteria. Your bladder infections might be also due to yeast and not bacteria at all.

I had a practitioner recommend a product called Syclovir to me. It is a yeast eating plankton and silica product. It works on the intestines and then pulls yeast out of other areas of the body. Even sinuses are much more clear now.

Protocol also calls for 2 -3 caps of Intefase Plus on an empty stomach to break open biofilm that yeast might be in. THen follow about 1/2 hour later with Syclovir.

He said if I did this, alot my candida would be gone in about 2 months. Sounds too simple. I am also on the candida diet. You cannot cheat, since eating anything that feeds yeast also causes lots of gas and bloating on this product!

Must have broke open a biofilm formed in my bladder after years of repeated infection and antibiotics. Trying to get over it without antibiotcs. Found websites that recommended repeated doses of apple cider vinegar = 2 T on the hour with lots of water, or Baking Soda, same regimen, to alkalinize the urine and make it unsuitable for the bacteria.

It seems to be working. Been up all night. 12 hours later, much better. Also I am nebulizing a silver product called Molecula Silver. 1 t as often as I can sit down for a few minutes. Goes to lungs and into bloodstream. Also taking 2T CS every 2 - 3 hours on top of nebulizing. Going to keep this up for about 5 days. ANother website told of a person clearing up bladder infection in 5 days on CS. Actually used lab to document 3 strains of bacteria gone.

FOr good measure, I am using D-Mannose. Its a habit. Most of my infections go away with only D-Mannose. BUt not this one.

Another website has a testimony of a woman taking CS 2T every hour with a bladder infection. And it worked.

I am going to go to Vitamin Shoppe to buy some capsicum (cayenne pepper)since that herb as I have found, is recommended by a few sites as a builder of bladder lining (stomach as well).
